    I've a 10x12ft wooden shed with metal roof, I'd like to sheet out the inside just to finish it off better and be able to hang tools off the walls etc.
    I had just assumed I would use 8x4 sheets but didn't realise it comes in a large range of thickness and types, what should I use and assume for roof I'd need something without the weight of ply?

    Shed is only a store and bit of a workshop for my hobbies

    I've just sheeted a 16'x12' shed in 11mm OSB. Worked fine, currently hanging tools on the wall

    Did they cost around €16 per sheet, does that sound right?
    Also did you sheet the roof?

    Cost me about 19 a sheet, I did the roof with 6mm ply, to reduce the weight

    I used 12mm plywood (looks better than OSB) and also used 25mm rockwool to give a little insulation.
